Hi can i get a number Black Squier Jag SS, with Badass II bridge and Seymour Duncan Hot for Jazz Bass® SJB-2 in bridge position. neck pup is stock (and sounds delicious) Funny enough, the SD pup is also lower in volume compared to the neck stock pup - like the stock bridge pup one. Sound is...

Presto Nylonwound Light on my Musima Plywood, and i love them. only drawback: you can't bow them. Anyone can suggest a similar string in size and tension that can be bowed?

+1 - don't stop on the first bass you find.Go look around and try more basses you can in that price range. You can find great hybrid or plywood basses for under 2000$, that will suit for jazz, if sided by a good pickup/amp choice. i have a german Musima ply bass build as a tank and with a very...

Hi Mark, pleased to meet you and many thanks for the positive review! And...you really made my drummer's day!:smug: Concerning the fatting up the higher notes, I have somewhat lack of strength in my fingers up there,resulting most of the times in a muted thin sound. I am aware that this is...

many thanks for the kind words! i agree on dynamics, we really do have to give more breath and dare more on this - concerning my sound,I also agree.Consider that the recording has been done only with a piezo in my AI contra with the DI sent into a mixer, so no ambient sound whatsoever - also...

Bump for anyone?:confused:

Dear TBDBers, IMHO one of the best ways to improve playing, beside practicing every day, is to receive an honest and clear review by more experienced musicians. So I would be very grateful if you may find some time to listen to some recordings of my band Link Removed and express your...

if you like the combination vocals/doublebass, you should definetely check this italian duo : Musicanuda Link Removed if you can stand the italian vocals...;-)

amazing duo! :hyper:

before I purchased my KZ5 with rosewood fingerboard, i've tested another KZ5 with maple board, and, strangely enough, I found that the maple one was much chunkier than the rosewood - I mean, it really made me choose for the rosewood board bass over the maple one, as difference was really day and...

I couldn't change anything with this video, but this video changed me into a better musician...already 30 or more years ago! Thanks Jack,Eric and Ginger!

Hadrien, Bottom line: It's gonna be expensive or not?:confused: Cheers

one of my fave pics ever (and great record as well)...still waiting for my siamese cat to do the same one day...!:smug:

if you still have the problem after this, you may need to shield the electronics and pickups cavities with copper foil wired to common ground. There is a great sticky thread about this on talkbass;although it's related to jazz bass, you can apply it to any kind of bass.Works great, you'll never...

it depends on the setup that you have: if you have a great bass with a huge tonal personality because of tone woods and pick ups, you may want to keep this tone and just have the possibility to enhance some frequencies when needed. Moreover depends also from where you want to control the tone...

I have a Steinberger XP-2 from 1984, the "cheap" brother of the XL2, with graphite neck and wodden arrow shaped body and passive EMG electronics - is a great bass, very solid and with a great sound, beats up any precision or jazz bass around,tons of growl and bottom. And with all the advantages...

try Thomastik Jazz Flats - they are wonderful, very organic and powerful tone, very easy on hands.I have them on my Precision; you can go from the Jamerson's thump to the Upright jazz tone never losing definition and punch,simply great. i heard wonders about the Sadowsky Flats too, but i still...

Robert Johnson - Crossroads

last month i bought on ebay a 1984 XP2 Steinberger, the arrow-shaped one with wooden body and composite neck - i used to own one of these in the 80's so I wanted to have it back,out of nostalgia. Well the bass arrived and -shocking! - the thing looks damn new, as it has been built in 2009,not 25...

one of the most ugly overpriced pieces of crap ever built - a real swindle, even worse as it is advertised as a "cheap great instrument for kids" Flea my ass.Really

it was a CS! BTW now I'm the happy owner of a very light and wonderfully sounding MTD V so no need for that ! ;)

I used to own a Streamer stage one V and had the most amazing B string ever - sound was like a brass bell hit by a thunder! Too bad the bass weighted a ton, that's why it had to go...:crying:

not with an Epi, but, for my electric bass gigs, I am having a great time paring my Contra together with a Nemesis 210 4ohms speaker - i get the full 400 watts of pure heaven tone,loud and clear. the nemesis is very lightweight, and quite cheap as well... For my double bass gigs instead, the...

I'm not so sure he used a Rickenbacker for this tune - i believe he already switched to the Precision bass in those days...probably played with a pick through his cranked marshall bass amp - a real classic,great tune!

Just my two cents: I used to have a LMII, which is a killer amp with electric bass, but sounded terrible with both my double bass and EUB (NS Design). Now I'm using an Acoustic Image Contra, which sounds wonderful with both DB and (especially when hooked to my 2x10 Nemesis speaker) Electric bass...

especially if you have someone like her: WOAH! Swing those toes babe! :bassist:

if in your band you have a hell of an Hammond player that can play the bass pedals as well, you wil never need a bass player. Check cats like Jimmy Smith,Lonnie Smith,Joey de Francesco or Tony Monaco as example!

...be patient, I'm at work and I don't have the record with me, so I was in doubt between Travis and Trevor...Got it bad, ce la vie...:crying:

Check Robben's new live album - it's a killer - and Trevor Carlton plays wonderful and his tone is HUGE!

...as a matter of fact, i have to admit that i recognized him by the ramp and not by his looks - no cap, no fretless, mmmh wasn't sure...:D
